bernd1151 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I can’t show you the whole trip, as that would violate Orbx regulations, but at least I can show you three cities that are available on the Orbx site: Hong Kong, Macau and of course Singapore. Luckily I am old enough to have experienced my fare share of Kaitak landings, most of them went uneventful. Famous buildings are the Bank of China and the HSBC building, but at least for me there is another building of interest. It’s the white one with the small round windows in front of the plane’s nose. That’s the headquarter of the trading house Jardine Matheson. It played a role in the 1988 mini series Noble House, in which Pierce Brosnan played the Taipan of the Noble House. James Clavell used the history of Jardine Matheson as basis for his famous books. Over Macau About to reach Singapore 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stillwater Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 All 4 engines running until the landing, you must have a good mechanic on board. Great shots, btw. And it seems it gets time to finally leave the originating city, reading the news these days. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sniper31 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Epic set of shots Bernd. The colors and details are all nicely displayed in these. That Connie looks very comfortable flying over that scenery and looks like a nice flight was had. I've always appreciated the complexity of the Kaitak approach.

TigerTigerM Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 As always, an exemplary set. It pains me to ask as I should be able to deduce this - which Sim are you using? & a Happy Xmas & Healthy New Year! TTM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, by miracle all four engines were running, maybe because it was not LH but Air France. Really depressing news about HK! 21 hours ago, lifejogger said: Great shots of those three cities!!!!!!!!!
